THE FARM AND GARDEN.
WEAVING Pigs.

Young pigs should be wcaned gradu-
ally, and the weaving may begin at two
weeks of age. The young pigs will
take n little warm SKINNED milk out OF
q shallow pan il one is caught and held
with its mouth to the milk, and when
one begins TO drink the rest viii soon
join it. After this the pigs will come
frequently into a small pen for the feed
if m opening is made for them, and at
four weeks the SOW may be separated
rJm the pigs. After the first few days
i little boiled bran and meal may be
added to the milk, but no more han a
quarter Of a pint for each should be
given at one meal and four meals in a
day. This is ample for pigs up to SIX
weeks Old, when the rations may be in
creased gradually at intervals Of q week
in proportion to the growth. AT this
period Of a pigs life there ID more
danger Of over feeding than at any
